Punggol is a modern waterfront town located in the North-East Region of Singapore, recognized as a flagship project for sustainable urban living. The area was formerly a rural fishing village and a center for poultry and pig farming before being selected in the 1990s for development as 'Punggol 21'. A standout feature is the Punggol Waterway, a man-made canal that flows through the town, facilitating recreational activities such as cycling and canoeing. Punggol is noted for its innovative architecture and eco-friendly initiatives, such as the first eco-HDB estate, 'Treelodge@Punggol'.
